Summary

Existing law, the Digital Infrastructure and Video Competition Act of 2006, establishes a procedure for the issuance of state franchises for the provision of video service, as defined. The act designates the Public Utilities Commission as the sole franchising authority for a state franchise under the act. Existing law provides that a state-issued franchise to provide video service is only valid for 10 years after the date of issuance, and requires the holder to apply for a renewal of the state franchise for an additional 10-year period if the holder wishes to continue to provide video services in the area covered by the franchise. This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provision specifying conditions for renewal of a franchise under the act.
